A wonderfully light and breezy creation made by the dexterous hands of the Toda women artisans on a specially woven blend of organic cotton and Merino wool. The pukhoor (motif) of rosettes represents wildflowers, and the edge motif depicts mishpuum, a yellow-coloured fruit that grows in the Shola forests of the Nilgiris.

Packed with love in a reusable muslin bag, hand-painted by the indigenous Kurumba artists of the Nilgiris, renowned for their traditional art depicting tribal life and rituals.
